Single Mom's Sweet Husband (Charlotte) novel Chapter 18

"No, I didn't steal anything."

Although she was still clueless as to why this man was standing before her, Charlotte would never succumb and admit something she did not do.

"Great." With that, Shane nodded and didn't speak a word further. No one could tell what was going through his mind.

At this moment, everyone in the banquet hall was taken aback. At once, they were prompted to view Charlotte through different lenses.

Who was she?

How was she related to Shane? Who was she for him to initiate a conversation with her?

Behind him, Yuliana instantly recognized Charlotte's mottled dress.

She was floored, but Elaine abruptly pulled her aside.

"What's going on? How did Shane and Charlotte get to know each other?" Elaine asked fiercely in a low voice.

"I have no idea! Charlotte? Ah! She's Ch-" Yuliana almost cried out in surprise. Fortunately, Elaine was quick enough to cover her mouth before she could shriek.

Elaine rolled her eyes at her silly sister out of frustration.

Charlotte had already appeared, yet Yuliana was still in blissful ignorance!

However, an idea popped into her head in the blink of an eye. Charlotte had no evidence in her hands. Having Shane to back her up would not help her situation at all.

As her train of thought faded, a smile reappeared on Elaine's face. She hauled Yuliana behind her and butted her way through the crowd to stand before Shane.

"Brother- in- law, it's too kind of you to rush over as the busy man you are," cooed Elaine in a sweet, pretentious voice.

In a flash, everyone's attention was drawn back to Yuliana.

Charlotte could feel her heart skip a beat. Who would have thought that her boss was related to Elaine?

That could only mean that she was in a terrible spot now!

Before Charlotte's thoughts could run wild, Shane spoke.
